About Acala Bar & Bistro

A leafy Nusa Dua refuge where open-air patio dining meets generous hospitality and easygoing crowd-pleasers. Just a quick walk from the beach inside Bali Collection, it is prime territory to nongkrong over cold beers and live acoustic sets beneath the trees. Regulars know the kitchen juggles garlic-averse tweaks, kid-friendly pizza, and local staples without missing a beat—from wok-tossed mie goreng and beef rendang to eight-dish Balinese rijsttafel platters and warm chocolate lava cake.

  • Attentive, flexible care: Staff bring personal fans to your table on hot afternoons, loan umbrellas, and adjust sauces or ingredients without upcharges.
  • Open-air live music: Evenings bring live acoustic music to the tree-shaded outdoor patio, paired with casual bar bites and happy hour drinks.
  • Balinese rijsttafel & comfort staples: Serves an eight-dish tasting sampler alongside casual bistro pastas, thin-crust pizza, and classic nasi goreng.

  • Breezy garden terrace retreat

    A shaded open-air setting under trees and soft breezes provides an easy place to decompress after shopping or exploring Nusa Dua.

    Атмосфера здесь просто идеальная: открытое пространство, много зелени и приятный тропический вайб. Это то место, куда хочется возвращаться снова и снова после пляжа.
